I never understood why people didnt think men could be bisexual. A few people at work are like this. But only with men. Women apparently can be.

Whats funny is I was recently reading about Ancient Rome and stuff again. Where men would have sex with men. But it was more than that. Apparently, people assumed me to be bisexual (though I there wasnt really a term for it, IIRC). And you were consider eccentric if you prefer men OR women more than the other. So, bisexuality was the norm. And straight and gay people were the odd ones out...

That is true. Nobody was making a difference in genders and sexuality regarding relationships until around 321 CE. ( A.D.) at least that is for Roman Empire and most of Europe too.
Unfortunately that changed and for nearly past two thousand years it was a horror.
People were killed for loving a person of the same gender and to this day some countries still do that.
Even discriminating same-gender relationships is cruel treatment that can ruin lives, unfortunately some people consider such treatment to be good for moral values.
I would say that this confirms that even if humans follow and understand the importance of some good ethical principles today , they may disregard them in future. We never know what other things people will come up with.
